So, what do you think?

Pretty good, huh?

I know what you're thinking:

Asian guy trying to be a basketball player?

Pssh! Good luck.

But even after Yao, even while Jeremy Lin...

this still looks weird, huh?

Well, I don't blame you.

Everyone knows that if you're Asian, there are

the sacred four pillars of an occupation your family

and friends expect you to go into.

Medicine!

Business or Finance.

Science and Engineering.

- And Law. -Hey!

Unfortunately, I suck at all those things

and I'm awesome at basketball.

But no one believes that I can--ow!

Ow!

I...ooh, I am so sorry.

I was practicing my free throws.

You were practicing your free throws that way,

and you hit me in the head this way?

Yeah, I'm still learning.

For starters, try shooting the ball that way.

Yeah? Oh, wait, wait.

What else?

Do you know anything about basketball?

I know you have to bounce the ball and make it in the hoop.

That's called dribbling.

Dribbling.

What're you doing?

Taking' notes. Duh!

Why are you even trying to learn?

Well, Matt, I want to be a baller, son!

Okay, it's my cousins, man.

Actually, it's my whole family.

I know I suck at basketball, but there are these three pillars

among black people of what you're expected to aspire to be.

- Sports. - (crowd cheers)

- Music. - (crowd cheers)

- Acting. And that's it! -(crowd applauds)

No way! You could totally be a...

- I am so screwed. - What do you actually wanna do?

Physics. I love Science, primarily physics.

My idol is Neil deGrasse Tyson.

Who?

You don't know...?!

He's a famous astrophysicist!

And he's black!

You actually like physics?

Well, I like living and physics is life, so yes,

yes, indeed, I like physics.

Man, I wish we could change places.

Everyone expects me to be a doctor, lawyer, scientist...

I have this physics exam tomorrow and I know I just can't do it.

Everyone's gonna think I'm a failure.

Uh, physics exam? Well, which branch?

Classical mechanics, thermodynamics, or mechanics?

Electrotechnics or...(gasps) Oooh...relativity.

The normal version?

Do you know anything about physics?

Heh. Yeah!

Like, Albert Einstein...equals...MC...Hammer?

I have a three on three basketball tournament with my cousins tomorrow.

If I can't play, I will never hear the end of it.

You train me in basketball, and I'll tutor you for the test!

I don't know man. You really suck at basketball.

(scoffs) And you don't know the difference between PV=NRT

and P=F/A.

Wait...did you just cuss at me?!

You know, we did only train for an afternoon.

You can't be too hard on yourself, man.

Yeah. I guess so.

How'd you do on the test?

Yeah! Yeah.

Well, you know, we did only study for a couple hours.

So...

I guess we just can't be what the world expects.

Guess we'll just have to let the world down.

By being awesome at what we love.

You know, I haven't tried rapping yet.

Dude, please don't! (sighing)
